If a person wants to stay healthy and avoid problems with excess weight, then he should take a responsible approach to planning his diet.

But it is important to consider not only the quantity and quality of food, but also the time of its consumption.

People who work at night should take this issue especially seriously.

An international group of scientists conducted a study and came to the conclusion that people who work and eat at night are more likely to have high sugar. It is usually 19 percent higher than those who work during the day. As a result, the risk of diabetes increases.

Experts believe that people working the night shift should limit themselves to light snacks and also try to avoid large amounts of carbohydrates, which can increase blood sugar. It is advisable to eat well and in a balanced manner during the day.

Next, scientists will test a more convenient way of eating - immediately after waking up and before bed.
